... She sits in the company of Kings. This old girl is a rescue Navion ... a Rangemaster. A Kansas cattle rancher kept her in his barn for years, then a Ft.Worth buffalo rancher made a barn-find and brought her to Texas, then I found her and because I'm a Navion guy, he let me have her and bring her to central Texas. All of her squawks have been worked out, she's airworthy, and logging long cross-country flights. All she needs now is a fresh paint job, looking exactly like she did when she rolled off the assembly line. ML

pylot2b You would have to force me at gun point with my Larue upper to fly an airplane that size again! Those fly too slow! Haven't flown an airplane that size since 2005! 767 captain so hence my fear! Lol! Nice airplane but no way in hell! 2 likes

- laruetactical @pylot2b ... She can't reach "escape velocity", so Earth guarantees you a landing spot. Lift the flaps when you flare and enjoy the first turn-off. 💯
